This is an amazing yet terrifying boo, all the difficulties our main character had to go through in a horrible place.

I was hesitant to read this book since I had already watched the TV series. A story that I have already experienced is difficult for me to read because it doesn’t usually hold my attention the same way. That was not the case with this book. I am so glad I decided to read this. Margaret Attwood’s writing is so poetic. I loved getting a different look at one of my favorite TV characters.

Amazing story

It makes you stop and think of how we could wake up to this situation any day. It is frightening to really think about it.
The story is told so beautifully through the eyes of the handmaid.
Loved it. Haven’t watched the series because I wanted to read the book first, so glad I did.
